A man is at a sort of crossroads in his life. Recently divorced and retired. He is waiting on a settlement of his dad's estate and doesn't seem to know what to do with himself. He has a daughter that lives driving distance away with a granddaughter but doesn't really seem connected to them either. On a whim makes a turn away from the store he was headed and sees a sign for a free dog and stops. He gets the dog and suddenly it seems as at least that is something in his life. A couple women also come through in the story with differing results. It just sort of ends without really knowing if he will be better or not--might just sort of ease along again but with a dog. A sort of depressing read. Still not really sure about this book, was funny in places but characters make them hard to like.
There are 3 WL for this book on PBS so I will probably post & mail off at some point.
